This section provides a planning sheet that you can use to lay out the function
and tool assignments for output lines.
The term “function assignment” refers to the type of signal information that
you want an output line to carry to your production equipment.
The term “tool assignment” refers to the tool(s) that you assign to an output
line.
Note: Tools can be assigned only to output lines that you have assigned a
“results” function. These output lines will carry the “pass/fail” results signals
from the tools during each inspection.
The next section, Planning Output Line Connections, provides electrical and
timing diagrams and data. You will need to use these diagrams to correctly
identify and connect the output lines to your production equipment.
The Output Line Planning Sheet is a form on which you can lay out your
plans for each output line. On this form you can account for:
•
The 14 output lines.
•
The six output line functions.
•
The 64 gages and their warning and fault outputs.
•
The 48 windows and their warning and fault outputs.
•
The 6 reference tools and their “pass/fail” outputs.
•
The light probe with its separate red, green, and blue warning and fault
outputs.
